I have a 20 ga Remington 870 smooth bore with screw in chokes.
I seem to think I need to load up some round balls.
I have no real need to do this, but I've never let that stop me before.
It's really just a project to tinker with for me.
I've spent an insane amount of time reading old posts here, and other sites as well.
As far as I can tell the general consensus is, there is no general consensus as to full bore or ball in a wad.
I only have telescoping bore gauges so I haven't measured my bore yet, I'm going to check a couple places and see if I can get it measured.
I'm leaning towards trying powder coated full bore balls instead of balls in a wad. Powder coated to prevent leading was my thought. My gut feeling is it will be more consistent and more accurate.
I don't have any molds even close to what I might need. So I will need to find one or have one made depending on what size I decided I need.
I guess my question is, Am I going down the right road chasing this full bore idea?
Does it even matter? Is a good fitting full bore equal to a good fitting full wad accuracy and consistency wise?
